Happy New Year to all of our friends, past and future guests and all that support us. We wish you happiness and health and we hope 2025’s the best year you’ve ever had!

Wow! What an outstanding wedding we were lucky enough to host this weekend centered by two amazing people.

Thank you so much to Sam & Kumari for your vision and trust. We met some lovely people across the weekend, you’re clearly surrounded by some great family and friends ❤️

Wishing you both all the very best for the future.

We'll leave it up the the Bride and Groom to share photos of their special day, so here's what we woke up to thismorning, our very helpful animals taking care of the aisle and decorations. Perfect end to a perfect weekend, if Nevis could talk, he’d be saying “Shows over guys” 😆

So happy to help Herd on the Hill Sanctuary today with some of our organic meadow hay as we do every year. In the spring we leave it to bloom to help our bees, the insects and birds then in the summer we cut it to feed the horses in the winter.

Everyone’s happy 🐦 🐝 🌷 🐴

We have hay! Thanks to our amazing friends and neighbours Sean, Sam and young William at Arth Valley Retreat We've worked tirelessly the past couple of days clearing debris from our ruined hay and getting these 280 beautiful small bales in our barn.

This is quite possibly the best organic meadow hay I've ever seen, so many species in it and no fertilizer or any nasties whatsoever and as for the smell it's divine! I wish you could stand in the barn and smell it.

High quality forage is so important to us as in the depths of Winter our rescues depend on it as there's practically no grazing. So lovely that it's super local and from a small family business.

We use around 1300 small bales a year so this is just some of what we will need but what a start. Also love that it's Lammas day which was traditionally the start of harvest and a period of gratitude and plenty. Thankyou so much guys ❤️❤️❤️
